Posting my own again

Here's an interesting little ditty I've recently written & honed down to this. It's a really bright & happy tune. I decided to name it after the Infamous Post Road which was used to deliver mail between New York City to Boston, now it's just another bit of Rt. 1. I've wondered how many sessions happen along that road which runs from the Fl. Keys up to Canada. I'm also surprised the titles never been used. This reel is a little "modern" for what I usually write, but I hope it's not too garish in the Bpart. I added some chord ideas for backers, but I wouldn't swear by them. Let me know whatchathink.

Nice stuff, Brad -- you're right, who are you and what have you done with Brad!? lol -- I like it, though, as I do like those "modern" tunes. I was going to say that I'm not sure I like the octave drops in the B, but they're kind of growing on me...
